Koper

Reported by Dipavajan Renner

School time in Koper! A nice morning at the Adriatic Sea started at the school in Škofije.

...a musical greeting committee...

...as in many other places some teachers have to do push-ups...

...actions with our song...

...a souvenir...

Thank you Škofije for the hearty welcome!

...a nice view across the bay of Trieste - snowy mountains in Italy greet us from a distance...

The "Antona Ukmarja" school in Koper was next:

"High Five" for a welcome!

...and one loop around the school track...

Thanks Koper for the enthusiasm!

...not even 10:30 and we arrived already at the next school:

The primary school in Izola was on!

...the kids offered us drawings...

...great participation....

The mayor of Izola joined the meeting...

...and he led the kids on a lap around the school!

Thank you Izola for the wonderful event and the hospitality!

...our last school for the day came up: Piran, an old stronghold of the Venice empire, presented itself from a beautiful side...

...the lion of venice...

...our schedule brought us to the UNESCO school in Piran:

...smiles are the best welcome!

...some students sang absolutely wonderful for us...

Thank you Piran for the great meeting!

...the school treated us for a highly welcome lunch!

...we reached our last meeting: the city hall in Koper...

..the deputy mayor of Koper and his advisor welcomed us and received the torch on behalf of the city...

Any questions? Thank you for the nice welcome! We really enjoyed our time on the coast and said good bye to the Adriatic Sea for now.
